Chord Structure *G major with d in bass)

hello community, I play guitar and was wondering, whilst in the key of D major, if i plazed a G major chord, but instead of the g, the d is in the bass, does that change the chord at all?
thanks for the response!

That somewhat depends on the particular piece. If you are playing a popular piece and there is another instrument playing a real bass line, there's no difference. If you are playing a classical style guitar and the guitar is supplying the bass line, there would be a big difference as the bass line would change as would the harmonic implications.
